The Pink Fairy Book, The Pink Fairy Book, part 12, sentence 6

And the tree looked at all the splendour and freshness of the flowers in the garden, and then looked at itself, and wished that it had been left lying in the dark corner of the lumber-room; it thought of its fresh youth in the wood, of the merry Christmas Eve, and of the little mice who had listened so happily to the story of Humpty Dumpty.

Who acts: tree, garden, merry Christmas Eve · What happens: look, wish, leave, lie, think, listen · To what, where: garden, dark corner, merry Christmas Eve · Speech: someone speaks here
